on hong kong // anothermountainman solo 2022

EVENT DESCRIPTION

Lucie Chang Fine Arts is proud to announce for this winter, we are presenting the exhibition “on hong kong // anothermountainman solo 2022” by anothermountainman (Stanley Wong), which will bring together the long-running redwhiteblue collection, including new series “seeing words in hong kong / redwhiteblue // words talking / self talking /”, classic creations, sculptures and photographs “to begin with, there’s no matter” and “painting by god” alongside. He translates characteristics of the city into various art projects with the technique, silk screen on canvas, to address a fresh viewpoint with perceptual experience in response to today, the uniqueness of Hong Kong. Moreover, the promotion of well-being and social values.

Holding different forms of exhibitions, his work will also display at Art Basel 2023, March 23-25, in corresponding to this exhibition, utilising his works to infect and reinvent the space, referencing the ubiquitous Hong Kong fabric as well as his origins. The artist brings his passion for photography and various creative mediums into the space with a strong focus on social issues. “redwhiteblue” is like the HK spirit that lies behind the material- resilience, and adaptability. Over the past two decades, he gained international awareness with his ‘red, white and blue’ series that promotes the ‘positive spirit of Hong Kong’, which he presented at the 51st Venice Biennale in 2005 representing Hong Kong.
